President Obama recently declared that the U.S. will accept 10,000 refugees from Syria. The U.S. has been under pressure from its Syrian allies to help out with the crisis in which 3 Million refugees have fled Syria in the past year. Those in favor of accepting refugees believe that the U.S. has a duty to join its allies in Europe and accept at least 10,000 refugees. Opponents argue that the U.S. should stay out of this crisis and accepting refugees from the Middle East leads to a risk of letting terrorists into our borders.
yes, only after we stopped treating some of our own as refugees
@95WHXRLIndependent2yrs2Y
Yes but provide assistance to enable the Syrian people to be repatriated to their homeland
Yes, but we should covertly monitor them and protect them from Hate speech
Yes, but Covert continuous monitoring is important.
@92WL5ZGIndependent2yrs2Y
Only Children and women no men.
@92QJ8LZBharatiya Janata2yrs2Y
yes , all the people except muslims and they need to pay for their residence card fees for 3 years , or do a job and pay taxes
@8ZQNZD3Independent2yrs2Y
we cannot handle the burden of more individuals in an already overpopulated country that has to wisely divide the resources amongst its citizens
India as a densely populated country should not allow other refugees to enter. In india getting a empty last is a hectic job becouse of the population, if more people enter then it will bad for them as they won't get good services and it will bad for Indian citizens as well.
@8XXCPCZBharatiya Janata2yrs2Y
Yes, but only in cases where they don't believe in intolerant memes.
@8XLWCGB2yrs2Y
Not against anyone ,but we already have a population problem which is set to overtake China very soon.
@8XF5M8F2yrs2Y
Only a limited amount of refugees should be allowed. Refugees who have skills and can contribute to the Indian economy should be allowed the refugee status in India after a thorough check on their background to prevent terrorism from entering India.
@8WVY9DYIndependent3yrs3Y
Yes after huge amounts of screening
@8SVBZYXIndependent3yrs3Y
No, because there is little place in India and already the complexities and problems are huge here.
@8SPYZ243yrs3Y
All depends on how much the governing body can afford
@8LWKG753yrs3Y
No, we should focus on our own issues first
@8CQXX4PIndependent4yrs4Y
Yes, only if it does not interfere with the employment of Indian citizens and after the refugees have been given proper language training.
@8WGCFJBBharatiya Janata3yrs3Y
we should accept thousand refugees.
@8TGX2GZIndependent3yrs3Y
No, but provide possible aid. We are already at maximum capacity unfortunately
@8TGMSSR3yrs3Y
Let India feed all its citizens first and acquire 100% literacy before trying to help others
@8TBF3KS3yrs3Y
Do not accept refugees from risk areas.
@8T2C4JJ3yrs3Y
We can’t afford more refugees with this population
@8SKTYK6Bharatiya Janata3yrs3Y
No , but help them . We don't have enough resources and space for more people ,but we can help them .
@8S5FW3Z3yrs3Y
Don't accept any refugees from ANY country
No, but we should provide relief to the Syrian refugees regularly
@8QSFJH6Bharatiya Janata3yrs3Y
No because we there is already enough people
@8QN2GY33yrs3Y
If our country is facing problems in providing resources to refugees they shouldn't be allowed as it will only deprive them of the lives they hoped for.
@8QM3R533yrs3Y
Given the situation our country is in it wouldn’t be able to accommodate anymore people especially when our country has very little job opportunities and poverty is on the rise
No because there already overpopulation in India
@8QK28KC3yrs3Y
No, unless an international framework which requires every country to accept refugees on equitable grounds.
@8Q9FM473yrs3Y
We do not have resources to cater them
@8Q2M9623yrs3Y
All immigrants should be treated the same way.
@8Q29ZJB3yrs3Y
Accept until a particular tenure. Give aid till then. Those who contribute to Indian national development to a larger extent should get citizenship.
@8PSLBXLBharatiya Janata3yrs3Y
No we don't have that much resources
We are already overpopulated.
@8PGCHR53yrs3Y
Accepting any refugees right now would just be charity that we can't afford. Later, if we are in a better position, maybe.
@8NN39SY3yrs3Y
No, India will not be a welcoming space for refugees.
@8Q9CDSNBharatiya Janata3yrs3Y
Only if they are Hindus
@93WVTRT2yrs2Y
Divide them equally with others countries. Why should my taxes have to pay for 100% of refugees? Europe should divide refugees between all of their countries and the u s could take a certain percentage.
Deleted2yrs2Y
No, we should help make safe zones in their country.
@93MFRG22yrs2Y
They should be settled in countries close to Syria that have the same kind of culture and language as them.
@93HTZPV2yrs2Y
No, we should send refugees to closer countries.
@93G2RP72yrs2Y
Yes, but the government should spend any money on getting them to the United States or taking care of them
@8T9D7X52yrs2Y
Yes, but if only they are threatened non-Muslim minorities like Assyrians or Druze.
@93DSRN92yrs2Y
Yes, but with reasonable background checks.
@9375CQF2yrs2Y
yes, with extreme background checks
@9375CLT2yrs2Y
yes, with intense background check.
@92ZYZRW2yrs2Y
Yes but only if they have proof of identity.
@9334YP32yrs2Y
Yes, but only heterosexual cisgender Christians.
@932YGD72yrs2Y
